The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of sitagliptin on glucose tolerance, plasma lipids, energy
expenditure and metabolism of brown adipose tissue (BAT), white adipose tissue (WAT) and skeletal muscle in overweight
individuals with prediabetes (impaired glucose tolerance and/or impaired fasting glucose). One participant from the sitagliptin group was excluded from analysis, due to a distribution error, leaving 29 participants
for further analysis. Sitagliptin, but not placebo, lowered glucose excursion (−40%; p < 0.003) during OGTT, accompanied by an
improved insulinogenic index (+38%; p < 0.003) and oral disposition index (+44%; p < 0.003). In addition, sitagliptin lowered
serum concentrations of triacylglycerol (−29%) and very large (−46%), large (−35%) and medium-sized (−24%) VLDL particles
(all p < 0.05). Body weight, body composition and energy expenditure did not change. In skeletal muscle, sitagliptin increased mRNA expression of PGC1β (also known as PPARGC1B) (+117%; p < 0.05), a main controller of mitochondrial oxidative
energy metabolism. Although the primary endpoint of change in BAT volume and activity was not met, sitagliptin increased [18F]
FDG uptake in subcutaneous WAT (sWAT; +53%; p < 0.05). Reported side effects were mild and transient and not necessarily
related to the treatment. Twelve weeks of sitagliptin in overweight, Europid men with prediabetes improves glucose tolerance
and lipid metabolism, as related to increased [18F] FDG uptake by sWAT, rather than BAT, and upregulation of the mitochondrial
gene PGC1β in skeletal muscle. Studies on the effect of sitagliptin on preventing or delaying the progression of prediabetes into
type 2 diabetes are warranted.
